The most versitle food deserves recognition. I love potatoes so much. I had wonderful potatoes at breakfast over the weekend. And the best mashed potatoes (of my entire life) a few weekends ago. I'm pretty sure that other than eggs, potatoes are the most variable food I eat.

Rice cooked in oil, for the love of god, rice cooked in oil.
Yes I know Japan does it different. Yes I know they have dedicated cookers to make it fluff. No Japan does not have a monopoly on how to cook rice.
Like fried rice or like actually cooking the raw rice in oil?

Nah, I used to work at a country club that did black tie events and weddings, and baked potatoes did show up on the menu. If they wanted them even fancier, they could get the twice baked potatoes even.
Yeah some people just always want a baked potato with a steak.

IF you also have milk or some other source of dairy.
that would mean mashed potatoes is the ultimate food

Why is mash a holiday food? They're just mechanically pre-digested boiled potatoes.

I can't speak for your anatomy, but my digestion process doesn't add milk and butter.

This is stupid. It gets plenty of recognition. Everyone loves potatoes. Makes alcohol too.

Fair point, I retract my statement! The idea of using a baked potato as a side sounds bizarre to me, but if it's a thing I guess it's a thing.

Ah yes this is a good way.

Is there a country where potatoes are not eaten?
It's essentially an untapped vessel for world peace, if you think about it.
Potatoes, some sort of boiled dough, and some sort of raw meat dish show up in basically every culture around the world

So do you fry the rice before cooking it in water like normal? I've done that with pasta and that was really good

Don't go making wild assumptions like that without citing your sources

Yeah just fry it with a little oil in the pan until goes a bit crispy, and then chuck water into the pan and put on the lid, stir every other minute, bit of salt, pepper, and maybe one random herb, and done in ten minutes

For fried rice without having to wait a day for cold left over rice to use, fry :1 uncooked rice in oil till it gets golden brown and smells toasty, then throw in :2 water/stock and cover it tightly to simmer for 10 minutes.
Switch the heat off after those 10 mins simmering are up and don't touch the lid/pot for another 10 minutes so the steam finishes cooking the rice.
Stir in any fried rice additions once it's cooked.
The texture is spot on for 'normal' fried rice, and depending on what additions you stir in, the taste is spot on too.

I don't believe I've ever had fondant potatoes before. Went off to learn about them. They look delicious. Very similar to roast that we'd do in butter but I bet the rosemary gives a nice nom.
The recipe I saw calls for Russet. Not sure I've seen them for sale here either.
Any floury potato will do. In England we would probably use Maris Piper potatoes.
